Overview
ONCAMPUS Ireland, operated by Cambridge Education Group, offers international students a structured pathway to degree study at the University of Limerick. The CEG/ONCAMPUS University of Limerick programme is designed for students who do not yet meet direct entry requirements, providing foundation, International Year One, and Pre-Master’s routes.
Programmes are typically delivered at partner institutions such as UniHaven College, combining academic subject preparation with intensive English language training and study skills development.
Students who successfully complete their pathway programme and meet required grades can progress directly into a wide range of undergraduate or postgraduate degrees at the University of Limerick. The pathway model focuses on easing the transition into Irish higher education, with smaller class sizes, tailored academic support, and a curriculum aligned to university expectations.
Services
ONCAMPUS programmes are specifically designed for international students, with integrated academic and pastoral support. Teaching teams provide close supervision, helping students develop critical thinking, research, and independent learning skills required for university study.
Students receive English language support alongside their academic modules, typically with several hours per week dedicated to improving academic writing, communication, and presentation skills.
Pastoral care is a core feature, with staff offering guidance on adapting to life in Ireland, academic expectations, and progression planning. Smaller class sizes allow for more personalised feedback compared to traditional university settings.
Support continues throughout the transition to the University of Limerick, ensuring students are prepared both academically and culturally for full degree study.
Rankings
As a pathway provider, ONCAMPUS itself is not ranked. However, progression leads to the University of Limerick, which holds strong international recognition.
The university is ranked within the top 500 globally in the QS World University Rankings and has achieved a QS 5-Star rating for teaching, employability, and internationalisation.
Accommodation
Accommodation includes purpose-built student villages with furnished rooms, shared kitchens, and strong campus integration. Due to demand, students are advised to arrange housing early.
Location
Limerick offers a more affordable cost of living compared to Dublin, alongside a growing student population, cultural venues, and access to Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way. Transport links connect the city to Dublin and Shannon Airport, supporting both domestic and international travel.
